Mountain Trail Descent to the Valley

Highlight • Trail

Good footwear is required here. The path goes over hill and dale and often changes direction. But: It's a lot of fun! 🏞

Finstertaler Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Fantastically located reservoir in the middle of the Tyrolean mountains. It is especially nice when the surrounding peaks are reflected in the turquoise waters.

A proud, but light 3000 in the Stubai Alps, with the support of the cable car from the Kühtai to do well with not so great condition. A well-marked trail often leads to bumpy, over block and gravel, but never difficult, on this promising summit.

Finstertal Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Finstertal reservoir is a reservoir near Kühtai in Tyrol at an altitude of 2,300 meters.

It is quite exciting to look at the turquoise shimmering ice-cold water. However, the warehouse is not developed for tourism (no circular hiking trail, no restoration, no toilet). The next refreshment stop is 200 meters away, it is the Drei-Seen-Hütte.

September 21, 2025,Sulzkogel von Kühtai - unser erster 3.000er 🎉

Today we set off early for Kühtai – our first 3,000-meter peak was on the agenda. First, we climbed up to the reservoir and then along the perimeter. From here, you could already see the Sulzkogel. At the end of the reservoir, we then continued along a rocky path toward the summit. At the top, you had a fantastic 360-degree …
